Yup, we'll forget, or we'll do insufficient testing and not realize it
is implemented in one of the supported releases.

Ie, it's not in 8.3, but it is in HEAD. We do testing on the *oldest
supported release* and put function=no on there, not realizing HEAD does
have it and now ports don't benefit from it.
